Bengaluru-based food delivery app Bundl Technologies, which operates under the popular brandname Swiggy, announced its financial performance for fiscal 2018, recording a 220% jump in its revenues.

Bundl Technologies noted in its filings that sale of services from Swiggy — its only brand — constituted 72% of its total income, while delivery income comprised 18%. The rest was made up of carousel income and income from the sale of food prepared in the company’s own kitchen.

The company posted that its total revenue from the sale of services was $59 Mn (INR 433.12 Cr), a jump of 227% from $18 Mn (INR 132.29 Cr) in the previous year.

At the same time, its total revenue from the sale of products for the year was $1.2 Mn (INR 8.86 Cr), 113 times of $10,599 (INR 7.75 Lakh) in the previous year.

Here’s a quick update on the financial performance of the company in FY18:

Bundl Technologies recorded a change in its inventory from zero to $51.62 Mn (INR 378.9 Cr)

It has been hiring continuously and posted employee benefit expenses of $25.99 Mn (INR 190.76 Cr), a jump of 107% from $12.53 Mn (INR 92 Cr) in the previous year

Joining the much-coveted unicorn club this year, Swiggy has been raising investment to fuel its war against its foodtech rival Zomato. It secured $210 Mn in a Series G funding led by existing investor Naspers and new investor DST Global and Japanese conglomerate SoftBank may make a new huge bet on the company.
